Heavenly Summer Peach Pizza
Homemade pizza is truly one of the most delicious and versatile dinner options in my books. From Greek, to Hawaiian, to Thai, you can literally make it WHATEVER you want.
With my iconic pizza crust that I use on a weekly basis, I felt it was time to post some more inspiration for toppings, and elevate everyone's pizza experience. I hope you also enjoy this specialty food, and if you do, I recommend you experience a peach put on pizza.
I know some may be hesitant when it comes to the whole fruit on pizza situation, but just trust me on this one.
This is where you can get creative.
How to Choose a Cheese?
My first recommendation would be getting fresh burrata (if you are not familiar with burrata, picture a more delicious, runny, special version of mozzarella).
My second recommendation would be goat cheese, if that's your thing of course, the sweet and tangy flavour combo goes together so nicely.
My last but certainly not least, is the OG mozzarella, picture an iconic margarita pizza situation, but with peaches. It's a wonderful thing.
Summer Peach Pizza Recipe
Yield: 4 individual pizzas
Crust
Greek yogurt protein pizza crust OR store-bought of choice
Base Options
A couple tablespoons of tomato Sauce of choice (homemade or store bought)
A drizzle of olive oil with a sprinkle of salt goes a long way. The simple flavour helps the peach and cheese be the STAR of the pizza.
Toppings
Base of choice: tomato sauce or drizzle of olive oil
Cheese of choice: burrata, mozzarella, goat cheese
2-3 peaches, cut into slices
Fresh basil leaves
Optional but recommended: drizzle of honey and/or balsamic reduction at the end
More optional: If you like a little more fresh green action, add some arugula on top.
Method
Prepare your greek yogurt crusts.
Prepare all toppings: spread base on the crust, top with lots of peach slices, cover with cheese, and finish with basil.
Cook on the barbecue or in the oven until the cheese is melted and the bottom of the crust is crispy. (Barbecue is around 5-7 minutes) (Oven is around 10-13 minutes at 425-450F) It is up to you to decide how crsipy you like your crusts!
Drizzle with honey or balsamic reduction and top with arugula and more fresh basil if desired.
Slice, or eat whole.
Enjoy every bite.
